Militia positions in Ukraine's Lugansk republic reportedly shelled four times

MOSCOW, March 14. /TASS/. Militia positions in the self-proclaimed Lugansk People’s Republic were shelled four times over the past 24 hours, the republic’s defense ministry told the local news agency on Monday.

"Fire was opened twice from infantry fighting vehicles on the Kalinovka village from direction of the Luganskoye village," a ministry official told the LuganskInformCenter.

The shelling from infantry fighting vehicles also targeted the Sanzharovka village from direction of the Troitskoye village. The Veselogorovka village also came under mortar fire, the LPR militia said.

"There are no losses," the official said.

The ceasefire in eastern Ukraine has been into force since January 14. However, Kiev forces and the self-proclaimed republics continue accusing each other of violating the "silence regime."
